Product Details

Eorzea. A Land embraced by Gods and forged by Heroes. Seeking control of this realm and its abundant crystal resources, the Garlean Empire sends forth a massive host on a campaign to conquer its southern neighbor. Driven by madness, the commander of the invading forces silently plots to tear the moon from the heavens and hurl it down upon the land. The people of the realm soon learn of this foul scheme, and join their hands in prayer in an eleventh-hour attempt to entreat the aid of the gods, only to see their endeavors fail. From within the moon emerges Bahamut, an ancient terror seething with rage fueled by countless generations of imprisonment. Sensing the tug of Fate, a powerful magus channels the last of his strength to send Eorzea's heroes into a temporal rift. There they wait, untouched by the flames of destruction, until they are needed again. Those heroes are you, and the hour of awakening is now. Come and witness a realm reborn.

Classes

Eorzea is home to myriad disciplinesprofessions that adventurers can take up. So as to be better prepared to brave the wilds, all adventurers begin their journey as either a Disciple of War - a master of arms who lives for the call of battle - or a Disciple of Magic - an erudite researcher of all things esoteric.

Experienced adventurers can take up other martial classes to diversify their skills. If you seek more peaceful pursuits, you may consider becoming a Disciple of the Land - one who gathers and harvests Eorzea's natural resources - or a Disciple of the Hand - one who uses these resources to craft wares and turn a profit.

Gladiator

Gladiators specialize in the handling of all manner of one-handed blades, from daggers to longswords, be they single- or double-edged, straight or curved. Tracing their roots to the Coliseum, where the roar of the crowd reigns supreme, these melee combatants have learned to seamlessly flow between attack and defense in a dance that delights the eye.

Making use of their skill with the shield, gladiators can also draw the attention and attacks of an enemy upon themselves, thereby protecting their comrades from harm.

Pugilist

The path of the pugilist is one of incessant training aimed at mastering the traditional techniques of hand-to-hand combat. Though pugilists command formidable power when unarmed, they are wont to use metal, leather, and bone weaponry to maximize their destructive potential.

Their preference for fighting at close quarters makes negotiating distances an absolute necessity. Many among them accomplish this by avoiding burdensome armor, allowing for maximum mobility while they move in for the kill.

Marauder

Marauders are combat specialists whose weapon of choice is the greataxe - a fearsome arm long associated with Eorzea's pirates. Their approach to battle is one of brute force, as they rely on pure strength and good steel to crush enemies and sunder weapons.

They are highly sought after for their ferocity and intimidating presence, and are often employed to hunt down monsters plaguing the land or to turn the tide of battle between warring nations. Skilled marauders have been known to take on entire packs of slavering beasts and emerge with little more than a few scrapes and bruises.

Lancer

The lancer is a master of polearms - weapons which have evolved from humble hunting tools. In former times, the longspear saw the most widespread use, due in great part to the influence of the proud lancer legions of Ala Mhigo. The lancer's weaponry has since expanded to include other lethal implements such as the halberd and trident.

While it is no easy task to wield a polearm as if it were an extension of one's body, those who master the lancing arts come to be as a raging storm before their enemies, capable of delivering a barrage of devastating thrusts and slashes.

Archer

With a bow in hand and a quiver on his back, the archer strikes at the enemy from afar. In Eorzea, two schools of archery have risen to prominence: that of the longbow sentries of the Elezen military, and that of the shortbow hunters among the Miqo'te.

Archers constantly assess the battlefield in order to determine the most advantageous ground from which to loose their arrows, as well as the nature of the shaft, point, and fletching best suited to their foe. It is said that master archers are capable of showering their targets with a veritable deluge of death well before a counterattack can ever be mounted.

Conjurer

Conjury calls upon the elements of earth, wind, and water and concentrates them to a potency at which spells can be weaved. Through practiced meditation on the essences of creation, conjurers draw forth and absorb aether from their immediate surroundings. A wand or cane made from unworked wood is then utilized to focus the aether until it manifests as the desired spell.

Versed also in magicks that restore and strengthen, conjurers are regarded as accomplished healers.

Thaumaturge

In the hands of a skilled practitioner, thaumaturgy can be a force of terrifying destruction. At the heart of this school of magic lies the ability to call forth and command the latent aether within oneself through deep introspection.

To then mold that aether into sorcery, the thaumaturge makes use of a scepter or staff, within which is housed a medium - a natural stone imbued with magical properties. Thus armed, the thaumaturge is capable of wreaking considerable havoc via ruinous spells and curses.

Arcanist

Adepts of the art of arcanum derive their might from symbols of power born of geometric techniques hailing from across the southern seas. Held within occult grimoires, these symbols lend shape to the arcanist's aether, thereby allowing him to produce myriad powerful spells.

Using the selfsame symbols to unlock the latent power contained within gemstones, arcanists are also able to summon forth the familiar known as Carbuncle to carry out their bidding.

Jobs

Jobs refer to those martial paths that thrived in former times but have since fallen into disuse. Recent developments, however, have occasioned something of a revival in their popularity.

By achieving sufficient mastery in a certain class, adventurers will be able to begin undertaking the mantle of a related job. For instance, gladiators may rise up as paladins, stout swordsmen who shield comrades from harm; thaumaturges may aspire to become black mages, masters of offensive magic; while conjurers may find a new calling as white mages, masters of healing.

The foremost appeal of jobs is the unparalleled degree of specialization they offer. Their potential is best realized in party situations, where having well-defined roles is the key to success. There can be no doubt that jobs shine the brightest in the company of others.

Paladin

For centuries, the elite of the Sultansworn have served as personal bodyguards to the royal family of Ul'dah. Known as paladins, these men and women marry exquisite swordplay with stalwart shieldwork to create a style of combat uncompromising in its defense. Clad in brilliant silver armor, they charge fearlessly into battle, ever ready to lay down their lives for their liege.

To be a paladin is to protect, and those who choose to walk this path will become the iron foundation upon which the party's defense is built.

Monk

Though now under Garlean rule, the city-state of Ala Mhigo once boasted the greatest military might of all Eorzea. Among its standing armies were the monks - ascetic warriors as dreaded by foes on the field of battle as the city-state's great pikemen.

The monks comprised an order known as the Fist of Rhalgr, and it was to this god - the Destroyer - that they devoted their lives of worship. By mastering seats of power within the body known as chakra, they are capable of performing extraordinary physical feats.

Warrior

On the northernmost edge of Abalathia's Spine exists a mountain tribe renowned for producing fearsome mercenaries. Wielding greataxes and known as warriors, these men and women learn to harness their inner-beasts and translate that power to unbridled savagery on the battlefield.

In former times which saw war waged ceaselessly in Eorzea, the warriors featured prominently on the frontlines of battle. With the arrival of peacetime, however, their art has descended into the shadows of obscurity, where it remains to this day.

Dragoon

Of all the things that are symbolic of the nation of Ishgard, few are more recognized than the dragoon. Born amidst the timeless conflict between men and dragons, these lance-wielding knights have developed an aerial style of combat, that they might better pierce the scaled hides of their mortal foes.

Taking to the firmament as though it were an extension of the land, they descend upon the enemy with every onze of their bodies behind the blow. It is this penetrative power that characterizes the dragoon.

Bard

The word "bard" ordinarily puts folk in mind of those itinerant minstrels, fair of voice and nimble of finger, who earn their coin performing in taverns and the halls of great lords. Few know, however, that bards in fact trace their origins back to the bowmen of eld, who sang in the heat of battle to fortify the spirits of their companions.

In time, their impassioned songs came to hold sway over the hearts of men, inspiring their comrades to great feats and granting peace unto those who lay upon the precipice of death.

White Mage

White magic, the arcane art of succor, was conceived eras past that the world might know comfort. Alas, man began perverting its powers for self-gain, and by his wickedness brought about the Sixth Umbral catastrophe. Although the art subsequently became forbidden, it is now in the midst of a revival at the hands of the Padjal, chosen of the elementals.

Those who would walk the path of the white mage are healers without peer, possessed of the power to deliver comrades from the direst of afflictions - even the icy grip of death itself.

Black Mage

In days long past, there existed an occult and arcane art known as black magic - a potent magic of pure destructive force born forth by a sorceress of unparalleled power. Those who learned to wield this instrument of ruin came to be called black mages, out of both fear and respect for their gift. Yet great power served to corrupt the judgment of mortal man, and so he unknowingly set out upon the path of ruin.

Adventurers who take the black will become agents of devastation, capable of annihilating those who oppose them through little more than the force of their will.

Summoner

The beast tribes of Eorzea worship and summon forth beings known as primals, among which are Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan. Yet what is a god to one man is a demon to another, for the city-states of Eorzea see these beings as a grave threat to their collective survival.

In times immemorial, there lived mages who had not only the power to summon the primals, but also the means to transmute the primals' essences, thus binding them to their will. Known simply as summoners, the existence of these men and women and their arcane art have been all but lost to the ages.

Scholar

In an age long past, when mankind flourished under the radiance of arcane mastery, the island of Vylbrand was home to a city-state called Nym. Though the history of that age tells of countless wars waged with earth-shattering incantations, it was the brilliant strategic maneuvering of Nym's scholars that allowed their mundane army of mariners to throw back would-be conquerers time and again.

These learned men and women defended the freedom of their tiny nation with their unique command over spell-weaving faeries, utilizing the creatures' magicks to heal the wounded and bolster the strength of their allies.

Pleased with the changes. Great Story emersion
I loved Final Fantasy XI, I enjoyed WOW but not as much. When FF XIV first launched, I was disappointed as a fan. Then Yoshida took over and added new life into it, but he wanted to redesign a new engine and server structure.
They did just that. Us Long time players are pleased. Starting in Alpha testing, into current Beta, it has come a long way. Fast action, deep story, and challenging foes. No more waiting for parties to do a dungeon. No more long grinding. New classes and jobs already being added (Arcanist>Summnor -Scholar).
I will also get a copy for Ps4 since I already get it for PC. The game is fun, with a deep story emersion Wow and other mmo's lack.

Cannot wait until the release!
Played 1.0 and it was a 4 out of a 10. They really revamped this game and gave it the makeover it deserved! Only reason I gave this game a 7 on lasting appeal will depend on the content that they release later on down the road. (and there has already been mention of addons in the near future) You can solo, group, or explore. It is so much easier than the way 11 was made in the beginning and it reminds me of WoW and Rift mixed with the elements of Final Fantasy. If you played FFXI then you will fit right in with some familiar char's and NPC like Goblins, Mandragoras, and Gobbuue. They have added mounts instead of warping to a town to get a chocobo and it is so much easier to get around in the game. Not only that but questing is so much easier and keeps you on track for the story. The cut scenes are amazing and even on a PC the graphics are amazing. I have an AMD cpu and an Nvidia 560 Ti video card and it plays flawlessly at high settings. They definately made it easier on what specs you need on your PC without comprimising playability or eye candy!! Definately give this game a try and im sure you will be glad you did!!

Whats not to love from a real Fantasy game.
I have played all final fantasy series just like iv played mmos like WoW and let me tell u i finally played ARR phase 3 for the first time on the pc from version 1.0 since a month from release and let me say this is a huge leap its way better than it was a lot easier to get around every quest is displayed on the map the combat is faster and easy to control even on any game pad for those that got disappointed in version 1.0 (like i did) or even some what liked it, its time for a change of heart this time around Square Enix got it right give it a chance this time is for real.
7/3/13

Very impressed.
Let me say first off I have been gaming and playing MMOs for about 14 years total. I have played every Final Fantasy game on the market from start to finish including the off genre ones game cube, Gameboy, etc. I always enjoyed FF games growing up as my favorite series it was the series that I think of when the word video game is mentioned. I have played many MMOs WoW for 8 years as a PvE healer, GW1 and 2, Aion, Rift, Age of Conan, Tera, SWOTR, and more almost always a PvE healer class.
This is where FF: Realm Reborn comes, it blows me off my feet keeping the whole FF series that I have known for 14 years and gives me an amazing MMO I can enjoy. I have all the amazing aspects of a solo player RPG I enjoyed into a world wide MMO with great PvE content. I play a white mage and plan to do PvE healing content at a high hardcore level of raiding just as I did in WoW. This game is going to have great challenging content to come and I truly cannot wait for this.

you've played this already
CONS: When I say "you've played this already" I am not reffering to version 1.0. If you are a veteran of MMO's you will understand what i'm getting at. This is yet another heavily instanced, quest hub grinder with global chat. You start in an area, grab all the menial tasks, run out and complete them so you can move slightly further from where you started, rinse and repeat. The combat is border line abyismal with a 2.5 second global cooldown. The game is solo friendly and offers group content as well. The map directs you like a child everywhere you need to go. You start off fighting bees at level 3 and then you will fight tougher bees that look like the level 3 bees a little further down the line. There is little to zero inovation in this game. Most things good and bad you've already done in another MMO you will find in this game with a FF skin. PROS The sound and graphic quality are what you expect from a Final Fantasy title i.e. awesome . Cutscenes are beautiful and offer some humor. character creation options are better than many AAA MMO's.
8/22/13

A must play game
This game has been reviewed, revised, tried and true. I am currently playing the beta and there are already so many players on it. The game looks and feels great and its a ton of fun you have to buy this game!
7/17/13

Better than expected
Well final fantasy developers really worked on this, and it shows. At first playing the beta I was a little skeptical. After creating a character some guy with a mask "shows you what you will look like with your classes gear. I did not understand this. After that cutscene I was shown in a wagon with chocobos and then some elvaan looking guys in the gayest looking masks came up to the wagon.... Already I was shaking my head lol. I played a little and stopped. The thing is, past that, the game keeps getting better. The graphics are amazing, the soundtrack is beautiful and really gets you in the mood. The combat system is a lot faster than FF11. they put a lot of detail in this game and they cut out a lot of the bull. You get spells/abilities as you progress your level for that weapon. That's how you level up your class now. It's still in Beta phase so I do think the monsters will scale a little better and I know developers have mentioned this as well. All I know is the soundtrack alone has me wanting to get back into this. I showed my brothers and they got hooked from the start. One of them hated how slow leveling a BLM was in FF11. He was always dying too. In ARR, all that changes. I recommend this game to casual and serious gamers. You don't need to dedicate all your life just to get anywhere in this game.
7/11/13

Finally
As great of a game as FF11 is, after playing FF14 in Beta I now have a reason to play this full time. Perfect evolution for the future of the FF series. Finally, a MMORPG done right.
7/31/13

Just a reskin of a better game...
Nothing special in this game. They basically take ideas from other games and put them in half hearted. And if you're a quester you'll be sad to know the quests aren't really repeatable so 3-4 classes/jobs in you'll have to find another way. Almost all the skins I saw are just redone FFXI skins.
The cut scenes are great tho.....so if you play a mmo to watch cs it's great for you..
8/28/13

What is this?
What is this garbage labeled as a MMO? Would actually be nice to be able to play the wretched game. At least with The War Z I was able to play the game. Here Im just sitting around hoping and praying for an opening and its going on 8 hours so far! Don't waste your time with this garbage. This garbage launched with so many ridiculous bugs, lack of space for mass population in each servers and really apparently not enough servers to put up with demand. For crying out loud I can't even play on a freaking NA/EU server!! Final Fantasy: A Real Ponzi Scheme should be the title and is much more fitting.
